Interesting...
Or are you a Young Earth Creationist? Where that god created things as they are nowadays?
Do to the fall, things are not perfect. That is pretty clear in Scripture.
You'll understand if we don't accept scripture as representative of anything that actually happened... for the most part, at least.

Hmm... you're a new kind I haven't yet encountered...
Explain to me how that works.
Do you accept the 4.3 billion year Earth, but it was created in 6 days, with humans and all animals already in it, pretty much as we see it today?

Also what exactly is a 'kind' ?
I presume microevolution can continue within the kind. Kind is a species.
If kind is a species, then how do you account for the fossil record?
Absence of humans in rock layers older than 2 million years?
Absence of dinosaurs in layers younger than 65 million years and older than 250 million years?
Absence of birds prior to dinosaurs?
Absence of land animals prior to water animals?
Absence of humans prior to apes?
And many other pieces of the puzzle of life on Earth that fit neatly under the model of evolution?
Also, what if I show you how evolution in the lab has resulted in a new species?
